Where People Fly And Water Runs Uphill

1992 – Warner Books (out of print – see Wisdom of Your Dreams)

“ONE OF THE MOST ENLIGHTENING BOOKS OF THE YEAR.”

-San Francisco Chronicle

In this extraordinary book by Jeremy Taylor, the man called “the most experienced and insightful explorer of the dream world active today,” we learn how to use the hidden messages of dreams to gain new insights into ourselves and to transform our lives. In Taylor’s book we witness the drama of actual case histories, but more than sharing the dreams of others, this remarkable guide shows us how to reap the rich harvest of our own night visitations with specific, hands-on techniques to help us remember and interpret our dreams, establish a dream group, and learn the universal symbolism of dreaming.

“From dealing with recurrent nightmares to discovering how dreams may connect us to the Divine, WHERE PEOPLE FLY AND WATER RUNS UPHILL is a life-changing and potentially world-changing work … an unfoforrgettable journey into the knowable unknown.”

-Kelley Bulkley, Ph.D, former president of the Association for the Study of Dreams

“MUCH MORE THAN ANOTHER ‘DREAM BOOK’…A CREATIVE, HOPEFUL, CONSTRUCTIVE APPROACH TO LIFE.”

The Living Labyrinth
Exploring Universal Themes in Myths, Dreams and the Symbolism of Waking Life

1998 – Paulist Press

“Jeremy Taylor has done it again! In The Living Labyrinth he continues his exploration of the mythic world, this time focusing on symbolism in waking life as well as in dreams. In so doing, Taylor identifies the universal themes that, at deep levels of the psyche, unite all humankind. This book is a beacon of home in a fragmented world filled with war and conflict. It deserves to be widely read, and its message needs to be pondered and applied.”

-Stanley Krippner, Ph.D., author of The Mythic Path

“Jeremy Taylor is one of our greatest guides into the fascinating world of myths and dreams. This new book showcases the incredible breadth of Taylor’s experience, the brilliance of his mind, and the warm sensitivity of his heart.”

-Kelly Bulkeley, Ph.D., former president, The Association for the Study of Dreams, author of An Introduction to the Psychology of Dreaming

“Writing in his usual elegant and engaging style, Jeremy weaves a fascinating thread between dream symbolism, mythology and the power of archetypal energy….Roving the mythological gamut from the Great Mother to the Divine Child to vampires and aliens, Jeremy illustrates how folktales, symbols and metaphors are not just stories and images, but living patterns of consciousness….”

-The Dream Tree News

“As a blue-collar dreamer, I got a lot out of the book. My understanding of dreams and psychology is pretty good, but since it is built on a lifetime of hands on experience rather than a post doctorate, there are big gaps in my education, and I found Living Labyrinth a gold mine of information and material that immeasurably fleshed out my sometimes incomplete grasp of the archetypes.”

-Rich Veitch, Roaring Rick Press
